hi, I have checked collapse and tabstat, still no ideas about how to
use it combined with a loop?

In the loop, everytime, I calculated one mean_EI_BE, how do I write
this one result into one cell of a table where the columns and rows of
the table reprsents different steps in a looping?

Can anyone help with this?

Best
Qing
